i recently downloaded fs2004 southwest repaints for a Boeing 737-700 series. I started up the simulator, and said aircraft initlazation failure. is there any southwest repaints particularly for FS2002 Boeing 737?

any replies greatly appreciated.

thanks,
alex

The 737-700 is not a Microsoft aircraft so you won't find anything like "repaint for the default 737-700".  For repaints to work they must be designed to to fit a particular .mdl file.  If you know who the author of your "base" aircraft is you can Google or search the library for his name.

my mistake..it is for the default fs2002 boeing 737

Most of the FS2004 default aircraft don't work in FS2002.  Third party models and textures work a little better but the only way to be sure is to install one and see if it works.

I could only find one Southwest FS02 repaint in the SimV library, the "Orca" texture.  I don't care much for it but you might like it.

Now that you know what you're looking for there's always Google.
